Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Robert Alexis Nihon (born July 4, 1950 in Montreal, Quebec - August 10, 2007 in Dorval, Quebec) was a Bahamian wrestler, who competed at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City. His brother Alexis was also an Olympic wrestler. The 1968 Summer Olympics, officially known as the Games of the XIX Olympiad, were an international multi-sport event held in Mexico City in October 1968. The 1968 Games were the first Olympic Games hosted by a developing country, and the first Games hosted by a Spanish-speaking country (followed in 1992 in Barcelona, Spain). It is the only Games ever held in Latin America (until Rio de Janeiro hosts the 2016 Summer Olympics) and it was the second after 1964 Summer Olympics to be hosted outside of Europe, Australia, or the United States. It was also the third Olympic Games to be held in autumn, then followed by the 1988 Summer Olympics.
